Continue to support Super Eagles, Peseiro urges Nigerians

Former Super Eagles head coach, Jose Peseiro, has addressed the importance of unwavering support from Nigerians for the team, despite his departure from the coaching position.

Peseiro officially stepped down last week after the expiration of his contract with the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF).

During his 22-month stint as the head coach, the 63-year-old guided the three-time African champions to the final of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

Expressing gratitude via social media, Peseiro specifically thanked the media for their continuous support of the team and underlined the vital role fan support plays in the success of the Super Eagles.

“I want to thank all Nigerians and the entire press for the interest, support, and encouragement given to the Super Eagles while I was their coach. I would like to ask all of you to always support your players.

“The Super Eagles deserve all your support, which will be very important for the great challenges that lie ahead.”
